50 years of honoring local history February 23 2021
The Bowman Museum collection has been compiled during the past half a century thanks to a generous community
When taking a look back at the 50 years since the A.R. Bowman Museum got its beginnings, it is obvious that not only did a lot take place, but a great and generous community made it all possible. One of the most recent hires at the museum put it very eloquently. Our collection system is really important because it helps us to keep track of when objects have been donated, and also who donated them and why they matter to Crook County. They aren t just nameless objects that we have, but they have a history, and they have an importance, indicated Sadee Moss, who serves as collections assistant.
Collecting and preserving history
Hannah Haney comes to Crook County from Texas as the new collections specialist
The Bowman Museum recently hired a collections specialist, and Hannah Haney is proud to call Prineville home. I am very happy to be here, and I love getting to know the community, said Haney in a recent interview. Everyone has been very welcoming and very nice to me, which, as a transplant I moved on my own and that has made the move so much easier. I am here to serve the community, that is my primary goal. I serve you all by making sure these things are around in 50, 100 and 200 years. I am very excited to be here.
